The word "marriage" and its derivatives should be struck from all
government documents. This word should be replaced by the term "household partners", with a suitable definition.
Why is this important?
The politics surrounding the definition of "marriage", causes significant diversion from critical issues. The institution of marriage pre-dates the US constitution and hence the government should not be involved in defining it. All that the government needs, is to define when two people belong to the same "household unit".
